H. P. Hall's Observations; Being More Or Less a History of Political Contests in Minnesota From 1849 to 1904
Book digitized by Google from the library of University of Michigan and uploaded to the Internet Archive by user tpb. Harlan Page Hall (1838-1907) founded the St. Paul Dispatch in 1868 and devoted most of his life to journalism. This book, based on personal reminiscences, chronicles the contests and struggles of Minnesota's political parties from its territorial years through the early twentieth century. He emphasizes the parties' factional struggles but also connects politics within the state to national campaigns, candidates, and issues. Hall describes local politics in light of the region's conflicting economic interests and devotes considerable attention to political strategy at the grassroots level
